01 Lexus IS300

I love these cars so much, must be nice to have one to play with at work too. keeps your bank account happy rather than doing it all to your daily I'm sure haha

It's been pretty nice. Makes me feel like my daily will never get to this point though! We actually have 4 is300's total. My yellow one, the silver one and two parts cars! One is red, and the other is green. So it's kind of nice!

You've been botted. Fukin auto bots....
Good build btw

Thanks!

The silver one has been making quite a bit of progress in the past few days as well.

When we got it, it had really bad front end damage, so we had to cut off the whole front, and replace it. Here are some pics.














And here it was, as of this morning! I spent all day working on it! Everything is wired, lined up, and ready to take back apart for paint!




Oh, and decided to slip in the LSD, for mad skids.

This is as far as I got.




I will be doing a little bit of work on my personal one this weekend. Swapping some hubs, putting back in stock wheels. And some other small stuff.

Here is how it sat today!

Looking good so far - How did you manage to get the door skin so straight after the hitnrun ?

I just used one of those suction cup dent pullers, and it popped out!

This one will probably just get wheels, lip kits, and that's about it. The other one I'm working on will be a lot more work.

We are building that one for work, to eventually sell.

Nice car bro. Looks good. What are your plans?

[Dsfaxon]

Well, I started another project! I bought this car from the auto auction a few months ago. It had some small damage, that took about 5 minutes to fix.

I had watched in for almost a month before deciding to sell my shitty Miata. It was the best choice I could have made!

This was my Miata!



And now, here is my Lexus!



Didn't even have it two weeks, and had already bought a set of CXracing coilovers! 12k springs front, 10k rear. If I'm honest, the fronts are way too soft, and I will be needing to get stiffer springs!



All is well, here is after the coilovers had been installed! It turned out pretty good!







I've been playing around with a few different sets of wheel sizes and specs. Not sure what size of wheels I want! It will definatly be either 18's or 19's.

19's


18's


Just the other day, some asshole decided to hit and run me... So I'm having to deal with that. Managed to pull the dent, but it'll need some touch up.





Here are some pictures of how I daily it.





And just so I can answer this now, because I know everyone will ask.

1. It's automatic.
2. No I'm not swapping it to manual
3. No it will not be turbo'd
